- I can't find a direct answer to the following question: is it possible to
- boot A/UX without a local A/UX disk providing you have A/UX exported via
- NFS? That is, there is a switch in A/UX startup which will allow reading of
- the kernel from the MacPartition, and I wonder if it would be possible to
- get all the rest via NFS. Alternatively, what is the MINIMUM set of files I
- need to bootstrap A/UX to the point where it can continue via NFS?

- Thanks,
- Phil
